Una, June 30

Residents of Jhalera panchayat in the Kutlehar Assembly of the district today submitted a memorandum to DC Raghav Sharma, demanding the removal of the provisions of the Special Area Development Authority (SADA). The provisions have been imposed on the panchayat under the Town and Country Planning Act of the Urban Development Department.

Zila Parishad member Urmila Sharma said the panchayat was brought under the ambit of SADA in 1985, after which the residents had been facing harassment for construction and repair of their houses, and water and electricity connections. — OC

The Tribune, now published from Chandigarh, started publication on February 2, 1881, in Lahore (now in Pakistan). It was started by Sardar Dyal Singh Majithia, a public-spirited philanthropist, and is run by a trust comprising five eminent persons as trustees.

The Tribune, the largest selling English daily in North India, publishes news and views without any bias or prejudice of any kind. Restraint and moderation, rather than agitational language and partisanship, are the hallmarks of the newspaper. It is an independent newspaper in the real sense of the term.

The Tribune has two sister publications, Punjabi Tribune (in Punjabi) and Dainik Tribune (in Hindi).
